Saudi compliance, managed
Setting up was the easy part. Staying compliant is where foreign companies get caught.
A company operating in the Kingdom carries 50+ obligations across 10+ government platforms, each on its own cycle. Miss one and it surfaces as a penalty or a suspended service. One team runs all of them for you.
Backed by Al Ajaleen Law and IP · One vendor across 10+ platforms · Proactive monitoring
53 Government services · 10+ Platforms managed · 50+ Obligations tracked
WHEN A GAP GOES UNNOTICED
A compliance gap here is not administrative. It is operational.
The Kingdom’s government platforms are linked. A gap in one system triggers problems in the others, and nothing tells you. A violation can sit open for months, usually surfacing once it has already cost you.
Operations freeze · A late payroll run can suspend government services, halting renewals, hiring and approvals.
Staff stranded · An expired exit and re-entry permit can ground a key executive outside the Kingdom.
Bank account frozen · An expired registration can freeze your corporate account until renewed in person.
WHAT A SINGLE LAPSE CAN COST
Personal liability · Up to SAR 20,000 · Labour · SAR 200,000 · Workforce · SAR 3,000 to 10,000 · Tax · SAR 10,000 · Tax · 5% to 25% · Contracts · Contracts void
Figures reflect current MHRSD, ZATCA and Ministry of Commerce rules and may change. VAT applies at 15% once taxable supplies pass SAR 375,000. Corporate income tax on foreign-owned profit is 20%.
ONE DESK, NOT TEN RELATIONSHIPS
What your single desk replaces.
One team runs every government system for you. No portals to log into, no consultants to chase, no deadlines to track.
Accountability · One desk, one contract · Separate consultants, no single owner
Penalties · Flagged before they hit · Hit automatically before you know
Visas and permits · Handled proactively · Stalled hiring and travel
Payroll · Run on time · A delay that freezes services
Licence renewals · Tracked and renewed · Lapse quietly, halt operations
Your standing · A clear, monitored view · No clear view of compliance

QUESTIONS, ANSWERED PLAINLY
The questions leaders ask first.
I already have a licence. Is not the hard part behind me?
Formation is a one-time event. Operating is continuous, with obligations across 10+ government platforms.
What happens if I miss a filing or renewal deadline?
Consequences range from fines to suspended services, increasingly automated across linked platforms.
As the general manager or director, am I personally exposed?
In some cases, yes. Late financial-statement filing can trigger direct personal fines.
Can you take over compliance for a company already operating?
Yes. We assess your standing, transition access, assign an account manager and run filings from there.
What taxes apply to a foreign-owned company?
Corporate income tax is 20% on adjusted annual profit and VAT is 15% once taxable supplies pass SAR 375,000.
Is this a paid engagement?
Yes. You receive a fixed scope, defined timeline and one contract before work begins.
